Part-time adjunct teaching position at Occidental College in Genetics
Your Eagle Rock neighbor Occidental College seeks a part-time adjunct to teach a course in genetics with two labs this fall. Teaching as an adjunct is a great way to demonstrate course development on your CV and a must for landing a tenure-track position at primarily undergraduate institutions like Occidental College. As an added plus this course has a small enrollment (~11 students).
The Biology Department seeks a part-time adjunct instructor to teach an intermediate-level course in genetics with two lab sections during the fall semester, 2019. A Masters-level degree or PhD is required.
